The obsessive administrator of a wiki site dedicated to the video-game horror franchise Silent Hill, so devoted to the site that hes made 40,000 edits, apparently went mad with power this week and decided that Silent Hill isnt just about a spooky hospital. Its actually a subtle allegory against male circumcision. Thats a new one!
The power struggle started when someone noticed that the administrator, AlexShepherd, had turned a characters biography on the site into an 800-word rant about male genital mutilation, speculating that the character had been circumcised as a child. That seemed strange, so the anonymous editor removed the circumcision references.
You're a fucking horrible human being for advocating GENITAL MUTILATION, and 99 percent of Americans who advocate mutilating penises are fucking brainwashed morons, he wrote to the anonymous editor who changed his post. "Circumcision can have a HUGE EFFECT and HUGE INFLUENCE on the development of a human being's psyche. It's the truth. What you are trying to do is erase American history and hide the truth. Seriously, don't be on the wrong side of history. It's like trying to delete the Holocaust article on Wikipedia, saying its some anti-Holocaust or anti-Nazi rant. That's how brainwashed you sound.
As other fans of Silent Hill continued to dispute the games are about circumcision, based solely on the fact that theres actually nothing about circumcision in them, AlexShepherd only dug his heels in deeper. He argued that because he grew up with Silent Hill as a child and sees himself as one of the five best Silent Hill fans in the world, hes able to notice subtleties in the game that others cant.
And besides, it doesnt matter who disagrees with him, because he is the most prolific editor of the Silent Hill wiki. That basically means he owns it. So if he wants the site to be about a Satanic/Illuminati conspiracy about babies penises, then thats how its going to be.
And LOL @ me being removed as an admin by a random anon IP user, he wrote. You all realize this entire site is essentially mine, right? I am the top admin/bureaucrat of this site and have been for years. I have 40k edits on this site, and the next admin has 13k.

So if you were wondering where that new information on the wiki came from, well, there you go. I guess the loss of P.T. affects us differently.
Cut me down to size if old.
